Unpacking Future Packers: No. 37, Duke OL Brian Parker II

The Unpacking Future Packers Countdown is a countdown of 100 prospects who the Green Bay Packers could select in the 2026 NFL draft. The Green Bay Packers locked in their starting center and presumably the starting offensive line for the 2026 season when they re-signed Sean Rhyan to a three-year, $33 million deal. The Packers figure to deploy a starting offensive line of Jordan Morgan, Aaron Banks, Rhyan, Anthony Belton and Zach Tom.

That's for the upcoming season. If Rhyan disappoints during his first full season as a starting center, the Packers could move on from Rhyan's contract at the conclusion of the 2026-2027 season, opening the door for the Packers to be in the market for a new starting center. With the Packers needing to bolster the depth of the offensive line, it would be beneficial for Brian Gutekunst to target a player with the versatility to play multiple positions across the offensive line.

A potential target that checks that box is Brian Parker II . The Duke offensive lineman checks in at No. 37 in the Unpacking Future Packers Countdown.

A three-star recruit and starting center from St. Xavier in Ohio, Parker started seven games at right tackle during his redshirt freshman season in 2023. The following season, Parker started 12 games at right tackle and one game at left tackle.
